Why did Baji Rao I's cavalry strategy spread Maratha influence quickly?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Pressure could be created on distant regions with speed

The direct answer is A: speed allowed pressure to be created in distant regions. Baji Rao I, the Peshwa, is remembered for highly mobile cavalry campaigns. Fast horsemen could travel long distances, surprise opponents, attack weak points, avoid slow movement and force distant rulers to negotiate or pay tribute. This mobility helped expand Maratha influence over a wide area. A is correct because it identifies speed and reach as the main military advantage. B is wrong because slow siege warfare was not the defining feature of Baji Rao’s strategy. C is wrong because temple construction was not the basis of military campaigns. D is wrong because his expansion depended mainly on land cavalry, not only sea ships. Memory cue: Baji Rao = fast cavalry, rapid campaigns and wide Maratha expansion.
